GREENS OWN*ACCOUNT. The inflation of the balloon commenced at ten minute past eleven, and in the space of twelve minutes it possessed stericient power to support itself. Thirty-six men of the Lambeth diligent of police were then placed a round, each taking charge of one of the cords connected with the net work. In about an hour an iron weight of Albs. (p.-ovided for the purpose) was also attached to each cord, and s hortly after five more at different parts, making in all 41 weightg of 561bs. each. These were soon all lifted three feet from the ground, and the policemen were obliged to pass their staves: through several of the meshes to prevent the cords cutting their hands. This enormous combined resistance was found insufficient, and twenty of the workmen in the Gardens were called to the assib - tance of the police. The rain now fell in torrents, and the netting and silk must have absorbed, at a moderate calculation, 3091b5. weight of water, besides th e quantity retained on the top of the balloon by the pressure of the net on the silk, each mash forming a small reservoir. At a quarter past four the inflation w As completed, having occupied (under the unfavourable circumstances) only five hours and five minutes. I had supp,;,sed five hours would have been the time required, but I nov. - believe four would be sufficient on a sunny day. The process of at taching the car to the net was commenced, and fi•om the shrinking of the ropes by the wet, and the necessary atljust ment required at the first ascent (which cannot be done until the balloon is inflated), was I fear somewhat tedious to the company, but the ropes being now cut to the proper lengths this will be for the future effected very quickly. Twenty-four bags of b a ll ast, we i g hi ng t oge th er 4001b5., being placed in the botto m o f th e car , my com panions, with the greatest alacrity, obey e d my summons, and took their seats. They were Mr. Hild yar d, C apta i n Currie, Mr. Holland, Mrs. Green, Miss Green, Mr. E. Gye and Mr. W. Hughes (sons of the proprietors), and Mr. Jas. Green, my brother ; making in all nine persons, myself included. I had calculated the power of the balloon according to the average specific gravity of the g as made by the different Companies, and foun it to be considerably more than has been stated in the advertisyments; but it was the wish of THE LONDON COLLIER AND COAL COMPANY.

The lovely daughters of Bannow, amongst whom we were happy to see the Bannow muses, beautiful as when they crowned their " lord of song," were greeted with nine rounds of cheers at their departure, at an early hour, for their respective homes. ATTEMPT TO MURDER.—We have just been informed that the Rev. Mr. Coote, the Protestant Rector of Doon, was fired at on Sunday last, between two and three o'clock, P.M. The Rev. Gentleman, we understand, was riding down the avenue of a lady whom he had been visiting in that neighbourhood, when two men attacked him, and one of them fired, but happily without effect. The other assailant was also about repeating the murderous attempt when the arrival of a funeral prevented him. The cause assigned is, we understand, the interminable one of tithes, Mr. Coote having been serving the rebellion writs in that country, which has produced the greatest excitement among the peasantry.—Linterick Star. The inhabitants of the barony of Liney intend meeting or. Tuesday next, to form a branch registration club. This is as it should be. Dublin, Sept. i. MEETING OF THE CENTRAL CLUB. Yesterday a meeting of this body Wall held, Dr. HART. LEY in the Chair. When our Reporter entered the room, Mr. elltran was speaking against the reception of the Committee's Report. He was -sorry that any difference of opinion existed in the body ; be thought, however, that they nuglit to respect one another ; to behave, if possible, like gentlemen, and not as if they were in a pot-house. Mr. Curran continued, amidst loud cries of " Order, order," and " Chair, chair," but in consequence of the confusion which ensued, it was ut terly impossible to catch the drift of his observations. Mr. DILLON was sorry to say that in his opinion there were persons connected with the club who could be re garded in no other light than as enemies of public liberty —(Deer, hear) —and as enemies to the freedom of the city. He was most anxious to co-operate with the Trades' Union. No one was more convinced of the important services of that body than he was, and be would be glad to find the Club and the Union engaged in a contest of utility, each endeavouring to outdo the other in their en deavours to forward the public good.—(Cheers.) He thought much time had already been very uselessly ex penied.—( Hear, hear.) The sole object for the meeting to Nesider was how they could best further the approach ing registry in November.—(Hear, hear.) In 1813 they placed O'Connell in an overwhelming majority. In 1835, he was returned by a miserable majority of something more than 200. If proper exertions were made they might easily command a majority of 800. Mr. MAGENNIS moved, as an amendment to the re port, that that part which relates to the Secretary be ex punged, it being the opinion of the meeting that the ser vices of. Mr. Kertland should be retained, the scale of re muneration to be accommodated to the funds at the'dis posal of the Club. The amendment was carried unanimously, and the re port as•amended adopted.

On Saturday Evening next, September the 17th, will be published, THE LONDON JOURNAL AND GENE RAL ADVERTISER for TOWN and COUNTR,Y, a Weekly Paper of News, Politics, Literature, and Commerce ; much larger than the " Weekly Dispatch," price Fourpence Stamped. _ _ To be Edited by Mr. CARPENTER. The political creed of the editor of " The London Journal" is indentified with the interests and, well being of the millions. His principles will be found to be decided, without being offensive ; liberal without being ultra ; and independent, without being fac tious. " The greatest good of the greatest number" may be taken as the political max►m by which he will be governed. He will not regard the name which parties or individuals may assume, but merely examine the principles by which their measures are characterized. Whigs, Tories, and Radicals, will be held alike in his estimation, in proportion as they may be found the advocates and supporters of sound and productively-beneficial measures of policy, and the enemies of extravagance and abuses. He will never seek to embitter one class of society against another, by re presenting them as the creatures of adverse and conflicting interests, but rather to soften down the asperities which too frequently spring np amongst them; and unite all for the common object of promoting the common pod. So much for our Political Principles and conduct. For the miscellaneous department of our paper, we propose to unite brevity with fulness, and amusement with instruction. We shall aim at giving, week by week, a fair abstract of what is passing in the world, social and political, at home and abroad ; and that, too, in such a form as shall at once satisfy the mere news-hunter, and the more intelligent and reflecting reader. We shall overlook nothing that ought to be known, and endeavour to throw everything we select in the best possible form.

The principles upon w hi c h t hi s Company i s f oun d e d , have been adopted After mature consideration, and to the assured it offers the cotn } ",ined advantages of t w o of the most successful establishments a its kind that have been formed of late years—moderate rates of premium, and a large proportion of profits. To the Proprietors this Company offers a secure and profitable investment, it being the intention at the expiration of every five years, in addition to interest on the paid-up capital, to apportion to them one-fifth of such profits as may then have been realized. A Oeiteral Statement of the Affairs of the Company will be sub mitted every five years, and of the profits ascertained to have ac crued, after payment of interest, and the necessary expenses, four fifths will be apportioned among the assured for the whole term of life, of one or more years standing. This large proportion of profits among the assured will render its advantages nearly equal to those of a Mutual Assurance Society, without any of the liabilities at tachedto such Associations. Applications for Shares, to be made by letter, addressed to the Directors, at their Temporary Office in King William-street, Mansion-house, opposite Nicholas-lane : at Sir Claude Scott, Bart., and Co., Bankers, No. 1, Cavendish-square ; or the Solicitors, 66, Aldermanbury, where Prospectuses can be obtained.

TIRLINGREE'S ESSENCE.—Its vast and 1.7 increasing sale, from the recommendation of the highest medical characters, as well as those who have experienced its salubrious and bene ficial effects, proves its great success and superiority over every other pre. peration, in being the xi:lost effectual remedy ever discovered for the cure of strictures, pains in the loins and kidneys, heat, irritation, and other disorders of the urinary organs, frequently removing every symptom of disease in three or four days. t contains, in a concentrated state, all the efficacious parts of the cubeb, chemically combined with sarsaparilla, and other choice ingredients, which tender it invaluable to those afflicted with syphilitic symptoms, scorbutic eruptions, and all diseases arising from an impure state of the blood.

It will contain 48 columns, and will be so arranged as to enable purchasers, without detriment to they annual binding of this Journal in an entertaining and useful volume, to divide the sheet, so as to accommodate three readers at the same time. In this alteration the proprietors give to their numerous friends more than the entire advantage of the reduction of the Stamp Duty. That reduction is nominally from fourpence to one penny ; but as a considerable discount has been hitherto al lowed by Government for spoilt stamps, which is now to be withheld, the real reduction is not more than twopence far thing. While, therefore, the proprietors of the Dispatch sub stract from the price of their Journal more than is taken from the Stamp Duty, they will at the same time constantly give four additional pages. In fact, subscribers will have, - every week, an enlarged Dispatch for Sixpence. This Journal has long been known as the undeviating advocate of, the rights of the people. Belonging to no political party, and influenced by no party considerations, it is devoted to the exposure of all abuses and oppressions, the advancement of the great cause of freedom through the medium of moral improvement; of popu lar controlotnd of perfect representation ; in fine, to Reform, in the most comprehensive sense of the word. The great popularity of this Journal has induced unprincipled persons t.fr fabricate fraudulent and worthless imitations. The ,Dispatch is published at 139, Fleet-street. • M, Horace Vernet is finishing a painting of the de fence made by the Poles before Warsaw, ordered by the Em peror Nicholas for the gallery at Zarsko-Zelo. EUPHRATES EXPEDITION.—We learn, by advices received by way of Alexandria, from his Majesty's Consul at Alexandretta, that the iron steamer Tigris, forming part of the Euphrates expedition, the loss of which we lately reported as having been caused by a squall on the river Euphrates, has been recovered. She was found with her keel upwards a few days after the accident, without having suffered material injury. The last advices from Colonel Chesney state that the expedi. tion was doing well.—Maltl Gazette. . BANK OF IRELAND.—Since our notice of the increase of discount on English Bills from 31- to 4 per cent., the Directors have raised the discount on Irish Bills from 4 to 4i- per cent.—Dublin Evening Post. COUNT , or DowN.—.Out of evil springeth good. Lord Hillt;orough, at the command of his noble and right ho nourable papa, was elected representative for Down the other day ; and already have the independent men of that county taken steps to prevent, if possible, a repetition of the insult. A meeting was to be beld at Banbridge, Lord Downsbire's own town, for the purpose of appointing a committee to act as a branch of the Reform Registration Association, for Ireland.—Freeman. FATAL ACCIDENT.—W. O'Callaghan, Esq., principal of the Gardiner-street seminary, for many years established in this city, it appears had dined in Sackville-street with a party of friends on Tuesday evening last, and quitted them about eleven o'clock to return borne. The unfortunate gentleman (who was short-sighted) is supposed to have missed his way, and wandered down the quays, the night having been exceedingly dark and tempestuous. The mate of the Shannon steamer heard a voice in the river calling for help, but states that he was unable to render any as sistance. THE PSEWDO PRIEST.—Delany preached on the 7th instant at Killyshandra. The Rev. Mr. Saunderson and Galbraith, Esq., summoned additional forces of the military and police from Belturbet and Cavan, to act as body-guards to this frantic scapegoat. Mr. Galbraith re quired Captain M'Leon to post the troops before the Me thodist house door, where the exhibition took place, to pre vent, as he said, the rush of the Catholics. He, in confor mity to the commands of the government, refused to make the King's troops the satellites of a disturber. Our cor respondent informs us that this wicked man preached for two hours one of the most infamous and blasphemous dis courses ever heard in Killyshandra. He began by saying that any Catholic priest in half an hour could make fifty little Jesuses. The Catholics, influenced by their pastors and other influential men, allowed the fellow to foam and vent his bile without the slightest disturbance. This dis played their good sense. We shall make no commentary on theThlaspheinous sermon of this hypocrite, nor on the service* in ,which the police and military arc employed. Has Mr. Martin yet asked Delany for the certificate of his ordination ?—Frceinan. TRADES' V'tt lON.—Therc was a numerous meeting of this body on the 7th. Mr. Hayes was called to the Chair. The minutes of the last night's meeting were read, and Mr. Martin then rose and proposed the following resolu tion :—" Resolved---That we view with deli g ht the pro gress of the collection of the Justice Rent under the direc tion of the General Association, and that the standing Committee of the National Trades' Political Union be re quested the diire r t e o n take tpar i m s h e e a s s u in r e t s h f l o s r c t i t h y e , collection th o at i t t i t i h e r p o l u l t g r l i i o o t u i c t citizens may have an opportunity of testifying their attach ments to the great principles for the promotion of which that fund is dsigned." Mr. Reynolds, in seconding this resolution, inveighed with great bitterness against tithes, which blood-stained impost he never would pay. His pro perty had lately been seized in consequence of his refusal to pay ministers money, He (Mr. Reynolds) bad suffered six months' incarceration before, and the ring whieb his ith fellow-countrymen presented him w on that occasion, bound him to persevere in his resistztrices---(Cheers.) Mr. Reynolds then referred to the noble struggle which the Scotch people made to get rid of tithes and a church establishment, and said that ample jtigtise would never be done to Ireland except by a domestic legisitattre., by a total Repeal of the Union.—(Cheers.) The question,Of repeal was laid down—it ought never to have been laid down, and those who did so would have to answer for it at another tribunal. If he (Mr. Reynolds) had a seat in Parliament —and he thought he did not miscalculate when be said that the honest men whom be saw around him would give him a seat there—his first demand would be a poor law for Ireland. The first resolution he would ptit (in the face of the books would be to the effect that no man shunt(' be allowed to starve in the land that gave him birth.—(Loud and long-continued cheers.) It Was contrary to the laws of nature and of God, that the aged and infirm, and the poor, and the destitute, should be allowed to starve in the midst of abundance in. the land that gave them birth— " Sans populi sups-emir le,e" was his motto. Mr. Reynolds made some few more observations, and concluded by second ing the resolution, which passed unanimously. Mr. HAYNES brought forward a resolution relating to secret societies, and addressed the meeting at great length. The following report of the progress of the deputations from the Trades' Union to the electors of the county Dub lin was read, and the meeting adjourned. CASE OF Mn. DUFF.—From the Pilot it appears that Lord Mulgrave, with that courtesy which so eminently marks his character, and impressed by that devoted attach ment to the constitutional law which so well becomes the ruler of a free people, his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant has condescended to account for a seeming neglect towards the factious cleric of Killyshandra, taking occasion at the same time most emphatically to record his determination to uphold the law, no matter what the party affected. The followinglis a letter addressed by the Private Secretary of his Excellency to the patron of Delany : " Viceregal Lodge, Dublin, Sept. 1, 1836. " Sir—l am directed by his Excellency the Lord Lieu tenant to explain to you that his absence from Dublin, and the circumstance of the letter which you addressed directly to himself, having afterwards been forwarded into the coun try, prevented his receiving and acknowledging it sooner ; his Excellency would not otherwise have dela} ed assuring you that the arrest of Mr. Delany was a step entirely with out his sanction, and the repetition of which he has taken measures to prevent. I have the honour to be, Sir, " Your most obedient servant, " To the Red. Dr. Martin." SECRET se the SoCIETIES.—The snake, as we showed on Satur day," C. YORKE. is 'Scotched not killed. To-day we learn from a Wexford paper that. the faction has been guilty of forgery respecting the memorial to Government for the retention of 'Depoliceman. The journal referred to says we shall disclose facts in a day or two that will astound , the empire. VACANCY OF THE BENCH.—There is no possibility of knowing whether Mr. O'Loglen will or will not accept the vacant office on the Bench, of which, it is on all hands ad mitted, he 'will have the first offer. We should be inclined to decide in favoUr of his acceptance, were it not our esti mate of the sort of company he would get into. We wish it better for his sake. But •there is another s uggestion arising out of this : a man may feel it a duty to act as a check—an instructorto those sadly off for restraint and instruction. Perhaps Baron Joy will come home from Turkey spruce and brim full of knowledge, derived not from musty records, but from living loveliness in the harems of the Empire of the East. May such work a favourable change softeni ng i n t h e h ear t, a nd, by improving a taste for moral as well bgliness and writ s o f re b e lli on . .—Pilot. as personal beauty, cause him to abandon The anniversary of Thomas Moore's visit to Bannow was celebrated on the 26th of August by thousands of his warm hearted countrymen. Several of the melodies were sung I have consulted our Admiral, and others at this port, who all assure me that there is not sufficient depth of wa ter for a squadron of line-of-battle ships to anchor safely in Kingstown harbour. Sir Charles Paget knows the place well, and so does the Commander-in-Chief, who confirms this opinion. I think, however, that we may be able to send a large frigate there for a few days ; and, if t can manage it, you shall have notice. TITHES.—The Irish papers contain several accounts, showing that the victims of this odious impost are still " on the run" before the hounds of the Protestant parsons. The floods have occasioned great damage in various parts of the country. A bad harvest is apprehended. In Lon donderry so bad a one has not been since 1816. Suitt AND SHANNON RAIL-ROAD.—OD Tuesday, a public meeting was held in the Town Hall, to arrange preliminaries for carrying into effect that important and beneficial national undertaking—a railroad between the cities of Waterford and Limerick.—Waterford Chronicle. WATERFORD REFORM ASSOCIATION.—A most nume rous and influential meeting of the citizens of Waterford took place on Tuesday last at the Theatre, Bolton-street, for the purpose cf forming a Reform Association for collecting the Justice Rent, for ensuring an effective registry of Reformers, and for co-operating with the Ge neral Association of Ireland in obtaining a satisfactory settlement of the tithe question , and a full measure of Municipal Reform.

(Arranged from the Railway Magazine.) BOSTON AND NOTTINGHAM RAILWAY.—This projected railroad appears to be a decided favourite with the public. The Brandling Junction Railway has been commenced at a point between Heworth and the Felling, and is expected to be vigoroully prosecuted. BRIGHTON.—Another scheme is immediately to be brought forward, founded on surveys taken in 1823, by a person who competes for the honour of originating the Li verpool and Manchester railway. The Directors of the Bristol and Exeter Railway are .id LI be using the nitistAttiv_e_measores_ for t6prci.secu tion of the work. Great efforts are making to secure the shortest and bes line of communication between the capitals of England and Ireland. A considerable difference of opinion exists as to the best route and best harbour. At prestnt nothing seems to be fixed on. The Directors of the Dover South-Eastern line have commenced operations near Oxted. This looks like busi ness. They find it necessary to apply to Parliament next Session to.amend their line between London and Oxsted, it being said that the line granted by Parliament is either such as could not be executed, or' such as, if executed, could not be worked to any profit or advantage. Fifty thousand pounds is said to be a moderate estimate of the expenditure of this and the rival Companies before the Bill was obtained. _ . _ EFFECT OF RAILWAYS.—A railway is now forming from the harbour of Wyre to Preston, and at the former place a town will soon arise, named New Liverpool. Wyre is thirty miles from Liverpool. The difference in the respective port charges of Old and New Liverpool are considerable. The following account of dues at each are calculated on an American vessel of 300 tons, making two voyages a year, viz., Liverpool, 224/. 19s. ; New Liverpool, I U. ss. The Grand Junction Railway is proceeding pith great rapidity towards its completion. The men are at work day and night, and the engineer (Mr. Locke) has it in conl:em plation to throw open the line for travelling next summer. Fifteen splendid carriages have already been completed at Liverpool and forwarded to the depot at Warrington. LEEDS AND SELEY RAILWAY.—The annual meeting of the shareholders was held July 29. The traffic in every department is steadily on the increase, and the prospects are good. The dividend for the year was declared at 1/. 10s. a share. The Manchester and Liverpool Railway Company have discontinued the publication of their half yearly reports. GREAT NORTH OF ENGLAND RAILWAY.—A resolution has been passed to apply next session for an Act to com plete the line from Croft .to York, so as to perfect the communication between Newcastle and London. The number of director's is eighteen, and they arc to be paid eighteen guineas a week for attendance. NOIITIIERN AND EASTERN RAILWAY.—The works are to be commenced without delay, and completed within two years. The line from London to Waltham Cross will be completed within a year after possession of the land ; and the whole distance to Cambridge within two years. Noitm UNION RAILWAY.—There are upwards of 900 men employed between Wigan and Preston, and generally the works are progressing with rapidity ; especially the magnificent bridge over the Ribble. It will be exactly the Waterloo Bridge, but with only five arches. These will be 120 feet span, and are in a state that renders comple tion by the spring of 1838 almost a matter of certainty. Mr. Pinkers has commenced operations on the formation ofzi line of the Pneumatic Railway, near the banks of the Kensington Canal, and he expects to be able, within two months to demonstrate his method of working a line of railway. RAILROAD lllON.—Bills have been obtained this session of Parliament for near 1,100 miles o f road, requiring for rails, chains, carriages, and other works, required for roads f or which Bills been previously-obtained, and are now in 00 active preparation. These 210,000 tons, probably in re w ill amount to about 70,000 tons, making A total Tars. Railroads in the United lion for the next contract or in progress of being " 000 miles ; each yard of e States, either actually uno.,! consequently, to surveyed, amount to more than rails weighs sixty-two and a half pounob ; 000 tons of lay a double line this distance will take iron. The whol e of this iron must from the be taken British market. At several points between Winchester and Southampton the Southampton railway is proceeding with rapidity. Con siderable prog ress is ma king in the rising . ground west of The p t h e King's House Barracks. Ti • irtheipal excavation in hand is below Showford, between which and Compton the quan tity of earth to be removed is immense. The excava tion between Winchester and Southampton will exceed 1,200,000 cubic y ar d s , the whole of which is to be accom plished by the spring displayed on th e of 1839. Similar activity has been line near London, the excavation over Wandsworth Common being completed, and the completed line is rapidly Bridge. fh approaching the terminus, near Vauxhall ogreat chalk embankment between Basing stoke andOdihampton proceeds rapidly the bridge over the canal is completed, as well as another. The elevation of this part of the road above the level of the valley is from eighty to one hundred feet. --- In the last week of the last month the quantity of foreign wool on which duty was paid at the Hull Custom- House appears to have amounted to 1,575,5931b5., of which, it is added, 1,573,7541b5. came from Hamburg. Tho largest entry made by any house in Hull in the course of the present year, was that made last week by Messrs, Gee and C0,,0n -ount . ing to 1,000,6501b5., from Hamburg. •• •'' the proprietors and myself to under - rate rather than over rate its capabilities, in order that the public should in no case be disappointed, but, on the contrary , unless some unforeseen circumstance occurr ed, b e surprised.

We proceeded at first to the east, but soon took a south-easterly direction, leaving Greenwich and Woolwich to the left. The Gardeng and every avenue leading to them appeared to be one solid mass of human beings ; in fact there was not an elevated spot within two miles of the metropolis which was not crowded with spec tators. We had ascended about three-quarters of a mile • when we found ourselves in a brilliant sunshine, which formed a strong contrast to the dense and clouded. atmos phere we had just left. The gas now expanded rapidly, and the silk, down to the bottom of the neck, was com pletely distended. We of course ascended with great ve locity, and in less than five minutes the fall of the mercury in the barometer indicated a height of two miles and a half. This was our greatest elevation, and, it be ing nearly dark, I thought it unadvisable to ascend higher ; therefore, suffering a small portion of gas to escape from the valve, we commenced our descent. We were now nearly opposite Gravesend, and had crossed the Thames several times. The grappling iron or anchor first touched the ground near the village of Cliffe, in Kent, and, after slightly catching several times, took a firm hold ; a slight breeze sprinning up at this moment, the jerk caused the hoop to which the grapple cord was attached to give way, which rendered it necessary to open the valve very wide. This done the car soon touched the ground ; we then drifted about 100 yards, and the valve being kept open, the stupendous machine, which so lately exhibited its giant power, lay motionless on the ground. All my companions expressed the greatest delight during the voyage, and enjoyed themselves much, indeed so loud was their mirth several times, that I had some difficulty in making my directions audible, for I assigned some duty to each, such as watching the rise and fall of the mercury in the barometer and thermometer, throwing out ballast, &c. Being forced to take such a large quantity of ballast, we found the car too small ; but a new one much larger will be constructed for the next. ascent. We slept at the village of Cliffe, proceeding to Graves end yesterday morning, and arrived in town at 10 o'clock last night. C. GREEN.. SINGULAR ESCA PhOF A PRISONER Kendrick, the Police-officer of Kendal, late of Keswick, who had the reputation of being one of the most expert thief takers in the North, has had an adventure with one of the roguish fraternity, which tends to tarnish rather than to add to his fame. _ The worthy who has proved himself too many for the officer called at the inn at Kendal a few evenings ago, and asked to be accommodated with a lodging for the night. His request was complied with, and on his being shown to his bed-room, he left behind him a small basket, the con tents of which the landlord had the curiosity to inspect, as he did not•exactly like the appearance of his guest. The basket was found to contain about 100 pick-lock keys, weighing from 10 oz. to 3 drs. each, fit for anything from a castle-gate to a lady's boudoir ;21 of them were double-ended. The police belog informed of this, were on the alert, and about to form a cordon round the house. About half-past eleven, Kendrick ha,.l stationed one man in the house, and was himself outside in the entry, when he observed the fellow, who had begun to • think all was not right, coming out of a low front window into the street ; the officer was there to receive him ; a severe struggle ensued, and they fell together, but assistance coming - up, he was secured and lodged in the lock-up. Next day (Wednesday) when before the Magistrates, he called himself William Goodwin, a hatter by trade, said that he had served his time at Dundee, but that hehad not worked at his business for two ynrs, having until lately kept a retail beer-shop in Turn weli-str.nt, London. The Magistrates had no doubt but that the ,honesty of principle by which he was governed was questiooabie, and they committed him to Appleby goal for exerlis.e on the treadmill for three months. On Wednesday. Kendrick set out with his charge for Appleby, in a ,„ . 0-ik. The prisoner had on le g -irons, and his left hand ruffled to the side of the gig, but with the coolest. nonchalance he observed, there was no need of these things, he would go quietly enough) it was only three months, and he could stand it. Off they Went, and the affability, polite ness, and civility of the prisons r, won upon the affections of his conductor. At Mr. Noble's': at Low Barrow-bridge, they resembled two gentlemen rio:ng for pleasure, and bobbed and 'lobbed in drops of brandy: On they went to Orton, and here again they stopped, ana as it rained they again pledged each other in a drop of I).”andy. Before starting from Orton the placid behaviour of the prisoner still further won upon the unsuspecting confidence of the officer, and he unruffled his left hand, and his arms were then both at liberty—but still he had the leg 'chains on. When within something less than four miles from Appleby, the prisoner made a ferocious attack upon the officer, ,Trasp jog his throat with both hands, and holding him until he was almost lifeless. The latter threw himself out of the gig, but the prisoner still kept his hold, and the officer be came quite Insensible, and on recovering he found himself leg-ironed, hacdeuffed, and robbed of all he had, viz.—two excellent pocket pistols, his great coat, all his keys, and 3/. 10s. in money, and the horse and gig were gone. Kendrick, on recovering a little, hobbled along the road as well as he could, and in about a mile he came up with a countryman working upon the road side, and to bindle ap pealed in his misery ; but ;Or some time the labourer re fused to have anything to de with him, suspecting he had broken out of gaol. After much entreaty, and a promise of reward, the man was induced to run to Ap pleby, and give the alarm. Kendrick lio!ibled away until he reached the hamlet of Hoffrow, and there lie ap pealed to the humanity of the good folks ; but they dis believed his tale, •as well they might, and accompanied him as far as Burrels with his irons on. They were then induced to get a file and set him at liberty ; but still thinking they •had done wrong by liberating a Mon, accompanied him to Appleby, where he was known, and his . highly improbable story gained credence.

On Kendrick reaching Appleby, a number of constables went of in pursui!, but Goodwin far outstrippeJ them all, being full two hour's ride a-head. He was traced through the Memberly toll-bar, and upon the Fell leading t o Al ston, the gig was found smashed to pieces in a q uarry. 1 - 10 had stripped the harness off the horse all but the bridle, and taken it on with him, but had left it near Alston Moor, where it was fallen in with next day, and the worthy him self was supposed to have taken the road to Newcastle. Goodwin is a young man, about five feet six inches high, and from the description given of him, there seems little doubt but he is the identical person that escaped from three constables near Cockermouth a few months ago, and got clear off.
